Ludwig van Beethoven: Prometheus – Overture
George Walker: Sinfonia No. 3
Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 9
Gianandrea Noseda brings our celebration to an epic close with George Walker’s exhilarating Sinfonia No. 3 and Beethoven’s Ninth, the symphony by which all others are measured. The cosmic drama of this masterwork—its grand, emotional melodies and tremendous final “Ode to Joy”—reminds us why Beethoven’s final symphony resounds as loudly today as it did two centuries ago.
